That’s not what anarchism calls for. Violence has to do more with those clinging to power. Because as they say when you make peaceful change impossible you make violent change inevitable. So you should be good.

Are they truly Democratic though. Anarchism is an extreme form of democracy BTW. Not anti democratic. Coming at it from an American perspective, even many of our founding father’s figured by now we’d have majorly overhauled our governing system nearly 10 or more times. They knew their system was flawed. Instead institutional inertia has caused it to become progressively less democratic by many measures. And people turned the founders into infallible deities.

I have less issue with those advocating to rework or abolish institutions. Than those that as a blanket say we can’t question or modify them. Criticism etc should be couched in actually making those institutions more democratic and equitable of course. Not like the economic liberals that like to pretend that they are Libertarians advocating for tax cut and end to regulations that reign in the avarice of Corporations And the wealthy.

You might be reading too much into this. Now if you can link to that same user praising Marxist leninism or any of the countries still based on that ideology. Then you have a hypocrisy to critique. But in the absence of that. Those are valid critiques of both Western democracy and Marxist leninist governments. And it’s probably based on their lived experience in a western democracy that they are criticizing it. I’m sure you can find many in China who would have similar criticisms about their own system.

And just to make sure it gets said. Anarchists have no more love for the Chinese Communist Party than you do. So if you think they’re honestly using Anarchist as an attack Vector of the west. They’re going to need all the luck they can get with it.

They’re laying around all over the place. The thing is none of them want to run right now.

Yes they are still rather experimental and uncommon types of lasers. But proper death Ray material.

It’s not all doom and gloom yet. If you really want to see what a potential science supervillain might look like check out styropyro on YouTube. He has literally played around with cyclotrons their Transformers and much much worse. And has an automated laser turret that he’s built on his property. The only thing he’s really missing is the tragic back story.

No bigger damage than literally cooking the flesh would cause. The radiation is of the size that it interacts with molecules the size of water. Jiggling them and transferring some energy as heat. The radiation itself is largely harmless. And if you are in an area with any telecommunications equipment chances are your are bathed in it at the moment. Any danger from it arises from intensity. Much like light or heat etc. You absolutely could cook internal tissues. And as such it’s not a great idea to mess with it if you really don’t know what you’re doing. That and the Transformers for the cyclotrons are especially dangerous as well as there are some toxic Rare Earth elements in the cyclotron itself that you don’t want to mess with. They are honestly all more dangerous than the radiation being emitted.

It can. But the inverse square law makes it not as useful as you might think. What you want is a maser.

Microwave radiation isn’t ionizing. That’s the bad stuff. Once you leave the path of the radiation there will be no lingering effects other than burns you suffered while in the path. Microwave ovens were initially built to REVIVE cryogenically frozen hamsters. FCC questions can depend a lot on what’s in your proximity. Urban or suburban environment, be careful. If you’re on the back 40 they probably won’t care unless you’ve leased part of the property for a microwave transmitter tower.

I never said they didn’t. Marxist Leninism like capitalism helped everyone industrialize. It didn’t and will never help them achieve communism, much less stay socialist. It’s as flawed as capitalism.

Russia would like to have a word, China too. Socialism is great. But not all socialism is created equal.

It’s both. Appeasement never works. And ideology over solidarity leads to no accomplishments.

It does for me. It’s a portmanteau of voxel and libre wit the last l of the first word and first l of the 2nd word shared. If you don’t pause at the caps and just roll straight through. It rolls just fine and is rather clever.

Then tax or seize their wealth. The loss of subsidies will specifically hurt the poorer much harder than the wealthy. The wealthy will just push their increased burden from loss of subsidies off onto the poor like they always do.

Capitalism does not work reasonably well most the time. Unchecked it leads to countless busts and Booms that leave the average person destitute. You really should look into the history of the early 20th century. The only reason we even still have capitalism. Is because of two massive world wars. Slaughtering and grinding up many tens of millions of people. As well as passage of basic Social Security nets. We’ve largely at least abandoned the spirit of. If if not in practice as well.

Capitalism has been a failure at every level. Constantly. That isn’t a justification or Praise of leninism. There’s a lot of other ideologies on the Socialist side Beyond leninism. And they don’t require large National level government. Look into them sometime.

Not everyone on my side of the political Spectrum thinks the same way. But if you are pro capitalist. You simply aren’t thinking. Capital, markets, and currency. All existed before capitalism. The only thing capitalism did was justify the wealth and power of the wealthy and Powerful Beyond being simply born to wealthy powerful people. Now you get to be a wealthy powerful person by having capital. Which ironically just so happens to be most common among people born too powerful people. New boss same as the old boss. Funny how that works.

If you just happen to be luckily a member of an ingroup. Chances are you will have minimal issue. But that doesn’t mean people don’t. Your personal experience is yours and yours alone. And not shared by everyone.

There is no nebulous definition of bourgeoisie. If you labor, you’re proletariat. Even if you’re sympathies mistakenly lay with the bourgeoisie. If you live off wealth, and use it to amass more wealth. Bourgeoisie. Owners of many, or large company’s and middle management. Bourgeoisie. Landlords/slumlords bourgeoisie. Career politicians? Bourgeoisie. Stock traders etc? Bourgeoisie.

There is more than one type of communist. So your generalization is well, …highly ignorant. However, when it comes to leninists. I strongly agree. Those are the ones you’re referring to. Anarcho-communists have a hard enough time organizing together let alone finding the desire to go after bourgeoisie. They want to be mostly left alone. Authoritarians of any stripe are the problem. Not communists.
